(a) Calculate the minimum and maximum wavelengths in the Balmer series of hydrogen. (b) The Balmer series of hydrogen has an emission line with a wavelength of 486.1 nm. Estimate the wavelength of the corresponding emission line for the case of muonic hydrogen (where the electron in the hydrogen atom is replaced by a muon which is 207 times heavier than an electron).
